In Her Footsteps is a digital city walk in Grønland, an area in Oslo, made for the project multipliCities. A female voice leads the audience through eight different locations telling stories of people and places. In the frame of the 100-year jubilee of women’s suffrage in Norway in 2013, these stories focus on women and their place in Grønland. Throughout the years, distinguished women had a strong position in this area and stood together to fight, help and protect their families and the ones in need. Today the women’s community is still remarkable in Grønland and parallel stories are drawn between past and present.
multipliCities is a new initiative to produce an ambitious platform for creative walking tours of intercultural cities. multipliCities has developed from an exciting intersection of ideas around culture, diversity, cities and technology. These are city walk projects in digital and physical time created by artists in different cities and are downloadable applications for smart phones. Each walk provides a new insight into the cities and the opportunity to experience stories and environments. The audience can download these applications for free, and have access to a website on the internet to the other city walks that are in the project.
multipliCities is produced by motiroti in London in partnership with Oslo Museum and Centro Interculturale Mondisieme. Supported by Arts Council of England, the European Cultural Foundation and Creativeworks London.
The project will be launched in August 2013. More info soon!
